The Lakers are bad and super-fan Jack Nicholson is sad.

But never fear, Clippers guard Austin Rivers is here!

TMZ Sports captured some video of Rivers saying that he's working to get the three-time Oscar winner "over on our side."

Over the weekend, TMZ caught up with Nicholson, who's suggested that he's not as into the team as he once was.

The legendary actor has been a consistent supporter of the Lakers, going back to the "Showtime" era of Magic Johnson and The Forum in the 1980s.

But lately, Nicholson's support has dipped as the Lakers endure one of the worst stretches in franchise history.

The Clippers (37-19) are in fifth place in the Western Conference standings.

Doc and Jack share coaching thoughts earlier this season.
